Ectopic Signs

I had an early miscarriage the end of July and have recently found out I’m pregnant again (5.5 weeks). For the last couple of days I have had mild pain/aching in my lower left abdomen which feels like it’s ovary pain. It’s exactly the same place and although mild, doesn’t really go away. I have no other symptoms but with it being on and off for a few days now I’ve been worried about possible ectopic. I’ve seen the GP who checked me over and wasn’t tender etc, but has booked me in for an early scan next week just to check everything is ok. Would anyone mind sharing if they had similar and was ok, or what symptoms they had before finding out about ectopic? Thanks!

Hey lovely! My ectopic started with a very heavy period type of bleed that went on for over a week and then turned to light spotting, I also had stomach cramping and shoulder tip pain on my left side. My tests were also all over the place (negative and positive), I wouldn’t have believed I was pregnant if I didn’t book a private scan out of concern x

I had some pain and soreness in my right side due to my ectopic but the initial sign that caused me to go to the EPU was light spotting and bleeding from around 3 weeks (when I found out i was pregnant) until 5.5 weeks (when I had confirmation that it was indeed an ectopic on my right side). I ended up just having a miscarriage and I didn’t have to take methotrexate or get surgery. Do you know what caused the miscarriage in July? Was it also an ectopic?

Thank you! I’m not sure of the cause, it was more of a chemical pregnancy where I started bleeding. I haven’t had any bleeding so far this time, so hoping that’s a good sign! I do also have a two year old, where I hadn’t had any issues.

Ok, i would say to always be on the cautious side and it’s always good to have it checked out
